What a find--right off I-95 is this quaint little neighborhood gem. Super clean, pleasant efficient service but what's really 5 stars is the food. omigosh. I got a Greenwich salad and wasn't expecting greatness but it was THE BEST SALAD I HAVE EVER EATEN. Not a word of a lie. The flavor combo was so delightful it barely needed the flavor-packed fresh dressing. The ratio of warm chicken and bacon perfectly contrasted the cool greens. It was " a really big salad" (perfect for Elaine Benes ) but I loved every bite. I guess the rest of the menu is pretty great as well, judging by all the take outs families were picking up. Would definitely recommend, obviously!

After ordering delivery through doordash, the order never arrived. After waiting approx. 90 minutes, I called, and the "manager" stated that they do not deliver to me, and seemed annoyed that I even made the order. (They had indeed delivered to me in the past). Then to add insult to injury, they marked the door-dash delivery as complete and delivered. It was difficult to get a refund, as they use their own "driver". Never again.....

Excellent food and service. We had the mussels for an appetizer, salad and lasagna to share with a few glasses of wine

Idk it feels like this place is two different restaurants when it comes to their takeout food soggy through and through I love Pomodoro's but this was not what i was looking forward to have for dinner.

If you are looking for a quick take out, this place is clueless. Stood waiting to get a menu, finally went next store given the bartender just ignored me. The food might be amazing, I will never know. It is not very hard to ask if I needed help.

Got their pasta alla vodka with shrimp... it was good though I added shrimp to it. I was charged $8 which I normally wouldn't mind but when I my received my order, there was only THREE shrimp! They were overcooked & dry. I also ordered the garlic bread with bruschetta and the bread was soggy and the bruschetta was tasteless. 4 stars bc I do like their food and have had good experiences in the past! This time was just unfortunate.

Dreaming of dining in a romantic piazza in Rome Italy while living your life in Riverside CT? Dream no more! Pomodoro serves great Italian food cooked with care and with customers in mind and heart. Pomodoro is an absolute gem in Riverside CT. They will go above and beyond for their customers. Strongly recommend!

I've gone through almost the entire specialty pizza menu.If you want something degenerate, get the penne alla vodka pizza.If you want something hearty, get the chicken parmesan pizza.If you want something classic but not quite standard, get the caprese pizzaEach of these should be designated as a national treasure.The regular Pomodo cheese pizza can compete with Pepe's and Sally's on a good day, but it felt a little weaker on the cheese the last time I tried it.For non-pizza items, I'm not as experienced, but this is the only place I've seen serving veal. Greenwich Salad is great. Burgers, not as great. Overall, it's my favorite restaurant in the area.

Biggest slice of Buffalo chicken pizza I’ve ever had. Had to be a pound of goodness on there. They didn’t have it on the menu, but they created it for me and how do you think that made my taste buds feel????pizza is all I’ve had here, but it smells greasy when you step foot in here.

Phenomenal & authentic Italian food. I highly recommend the Tuscan chicken!
The chicken parm was delicious. I asked for extra crispy chicken - it was thin and the sauce was delicious. I got a side of penne vodka and it was also delicious. The chicken francaise was also thin, delicious and flavorful. The side salad was the saddest tiniest salad that was all wilted. However, the "famous house dressing" was amazing. Do you sell bottles of it? I would totally buy! I'll definitely be back.

They loaded my pizza up with toppings and when I opened the box, the whole family was just staring at this beautiful pizza. One piece made me full, soooo worth every penny!

Literally just came here to eat. Web says closes at 10 and they just sent me away. Poor customer service. Didn’t even ask if I wanted to place an order to go yet another customer is sitting at the table still waiting for food with 2 glasses of wine.

Went today and had lunch with friends. Minestrone soup was ok, fried calamari was pretty good. Ordered Chicken Parm with spaghetti to bring home for dinner tonight. Def disappointed. No spaghetti to be found. Was so looking forward to eating this meal. Chicken parm has good flavor but def overcooked.

Usually good food and good pizza. The other day I ordered a large pie and asked for extra cheese - almost no extra cheese. This last time seemed quite stingy on the xtra cheese topping. Way too much crust on the sides. The whole pizza was way too thick. Will try it again and be more specific about how I want it. Willing to give it another chance, but quite disappointed on my last to go order.
